US auto companies, really? How do you explain how screwed up pretty much every other place in the USA is where there is a large concentration of black people and no auto industry? Even when the surrounding area is mostly OK like in Houston, Dallas, Memphis, East ST Louis, NOLA, Omaha, KC, Minneapolis, etc.? I would blame the welfare state and the destruction of the traditional family that comes with it more that any other factor, but that is just me.
Was talking about Detroit. A place I know of intimately. Can give you specific examples of how those companies were run by some of the worse people on the planet, but that would take too long. At any rate, what does welfare have to do with skin color ?
